“Culture is Habit: Harnessing Teamwork & Institutional Resilience to Promote Safe Outcomes”

Tiffany Lindsey

Culture lives in habit. Some say culture is “what we tolerate.” Other safety-critical industries, like healthcare, draw from the fields of ergonomics, engineering, psychology, and human factors to inform a “safety culture” within their agencies. In a safety culture, organizations and the professionals within them harness rhythm to team-based practice, value psychological safety– feeling accepted, respected, free to disclose a mistake,– and take strategic effort to institutionalize resilience rather promote individual self-care and heroic behaviors.

Workshop Objectives

  1. Understand the role of culture in providing care to clients and how mental health professionals can experience silo-ed cultural practices.
  2. Explain the relevance of psychological safety and the importance of institutional resilience (in contrast to expectations of individual resilience and self-care models).
  3. Identify and be able to utilize team-based strategies for safe, reliable, and effective client care.
